Walker was killed when the sports-car he was a passenger in slammed into a light pole in Santa Clarita, California and burst into flames, reported In Touch magazine.

Two years later, his co-stars from the blockbuster franchise have taken to social media to remember their friend, and Diesel led the tributes with a touching post on his Facebook page.

“No matter where you are in this universe, you will always be, my brother,” he wrote.

Diesel also shared a photo of himself sitting next to his late friend on Instagram, with the phrase “Brotherhood has no limits” displayed above it.

Actress Jordana Brewster, who played Walker’s onscreen love interest, also posted a photo of the actor on Instagram, and offered up a quote by writer Ralph Waldo Emerson as her tribute.

“The largest part of his power was latent,” she wrote. “This is that which we call Character, a reserved force which acts directly by presence, and without means. #paulwalkerforever.”

The second anniversary of Walker’s death comes just days after the actor’s father filed a wrongful death suit against Porsche bosses, claiming insufficient safety equipment in the car in which he was passenger was to blame for his son’s death and not the accident itself.
